Baz Posted November 1, 2012 Posted November 1, 2012 According to the LT the club have announced this tonight. A marvellous jest urge, but always thought it should be done whilst he's alive, but should be the riverside.

mark1875 Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 He IS alive, ain't he??? Yeah, he is alive and well.
Stuart Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 What's a jest urge? An uncontrollable desire to tell a joke. I went to the zoo the other day, there was only one dog in it, it was a shitzu. (I wouldn't have gone with the Douglas one though!) :unsure;
Baz Posted November 2, 2012 Author Posted November 2, 2012 Nice gesture. What's a jest urge? Blooming spell checker! :-(
Mike Graham Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 I suppose it saves Rovers trying to get a sponsor

Tyrone Shoelaces Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 Not before time, best player I've seen at Ewood without a doubt.
Stuart Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 Not before time, best player I've seen at Ewood without a doubt. And a Rover through and through. You can't imagine Alan Shearer showing folk around the trophy room...
Pedro Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 He was still sat in the directors box at the last match so I hope this isn't posthumous! I'm way too young to have seen him play but my grandad thought he was great. Definitely a fantastic jest urge by the club
Tyrone Shoelaces Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 I was privileged to see him at his peak , what a player ! He scored the best goal I've ever seen at Ewood .
dave birch Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 Dougie had the ball tied to his feet. Could dribble like no other. The only way he was stopped was with a foul. To my mind he was kicked out of the game in the same way Pele was. Yes, he was that good.....
only2garners Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 Wonder what Bryan makes of it? I wasn't at the do on Thursday night when the club announced it but Bryan was there but I have beeb told that he was very moved by the gesture, which he had no idea about beforehand.

Ozz Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 I was John and he had tears in his eyes when it was announced. Very moving.

den Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 I just hope that there are copies of these Pathe News videos elsewhere. I would hate to think that if that Pathe News site disappears, there will be no other record of these clips. To me, they're priceless.
Ianrally Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 Loved that clip Ian. How big was that crowd! 127,874. The biggest crowd I was ever part of was at Hampden in 1964 which was for the Scotland England match where the attendance was 133,245.
